Cleaning and care

Cleaning the fluff filters
A damaged fluff filter must be replaced before the machine is used
again.
The heat-pump and the airways can get blocked by fluff and lint.
This is a fire risk.
Never use the tumble dryer without the fluff filters in place.
This tumble dryer has two levels of fluff filtration. The 1st fluff filter is
located behind the fluff filter compartment cover (at the top). The
2nd fluff filter is below that one.

Clean both filters after every drying programme.
Fluff on the 1st filter (made of polyester) must be wiped off by hand
only.
Any other method of cleaning can damage the filter.
– The filters can be cleaned without taking them out.
– With high levels of fluff the fluff filters may need to be cleaned sev-
eral times during the day.
– The second level fluff filter can, if necessary, be cleaned using a va-
cuum cleaner.
